The Canadian National Railway Station was built in 1915

Fraser  River...
  ... at Hope B.C.
The Bridge at Hope, was completed in 1915 by the Canadian Pacific Railway. The C.P.R. built the spur line over the Fraser  River into Hope. It connected with the Kettle Valley Railroad which traveled through the Coquihalla Canyon and into the southern interior of B.C.

Originally the top deck was a
wagon road, today cars travel on it.
